Disclaimer: The following ideas are provided for educational purposes only. They do not constitute financial advice and come with no guarantees.

Event risk: UK GDP/production/trade (morning) and US Existing Home Sales (10:00 ET). Also keep in mind US CPI is due Feb 13, which can distort positioning.

1) EUR/USD — Breakout Buy Above 1.1890

Current price (approx.): 1.1859

  • Bias: Bullish only on confirmation.
  • Entry trigger: Break and close above 1.1890.
  • Suggested stop-loss: Below 1.1845.
  • Potential targets: 1.1950, then 1.1995.

2) GBP/USD — Sell Rejection Near 1.3700–1.3720

Current price (approx.): 1.3635
